High above blizzard-ravaged Chicago, a crippled airliner is barely flying, half it's roof torn away by a collision with another airplane. With help from a handful of survivors, including a woman from his carefully concealed past, Donovan Nash struggles to help the injured Captain fly the heavily damaged aircraft.
On the ground, Donovan's fiancée, Dr. Lauren McKenna, discovers a plot by the airline's CEO to let the stricken airliner vanish into the icy waters of Lake Michigan. As flight 880 runs out of fuel and daylight, Lauren and others execute a desperate attempt to save Donovan and the passengers circling helplessly above.
"I loved it. Philip Donlay is a gifted storyteller, and everything is there-great characters, great plot, and suspense and momentum that don't stop. Put this book on the very top of your reading list." Brian Haig, best-selling author of Private Sector and The President's Assassin
"Highly recommended for all popular fiction collections--sure to make a great vacation read, but beware reading it on the plane while en route. Michael Gannon, Booklist
